Explain what I've learnt about how all living things do Mrs Gren

Movement-Every every living thing can move
Respiration- every living things turn food into energy
Sensitivity-Everything notices changes in the environment around them

Growth-some living things can grow like flowers and more
Reproduction- living things can make babies like animals and humans
Excretion-Living things have babies in different ways like wolfs have cubs and chickens lay eggs
Nutrition-Living things need to eat to live and grow

Every living thing can do these stuff and some living thing can't do these stuff
